All: The new Billszone site with the updated software is scheduled to be turned on Tuesday, May 21, 2024. The company that built it, Dynascale, estimates a FOUR HOUR shut down, from 8pm Pacific, (5pm Eastern) while they get it up and running. Nobody will be able to post in any forum until they are done. Afterwards, you may need to do a web search for the site, as old links will not work, because the site is getting a new IP address. Please be patient. If there are bugs, we will tackle them one at a time. Remember the goal is to be up and running with no glitches by camp. Doing this now assures us of that, because it gives us all summer to get our ducks in a row. Thank you!
I am all for putting the ball in Sammy's hands as much as possible however I don't see having the kinda body and injury history to do 30+ screens a year.

Screen are probably better for keeping him healthy. Catch the ball, run around the DB, and go OOB when someone gets near.

Not only Sammy. I would think that Shady would do well since he too can catch coming from the backfield.
I don't think this was a play that Roman had in his playbook because it is actually a pass play.
IMO, since they didn't practice it, Lynn didn't bother running it either.
For both Shady and Sammy, getting them involved in running screen passes is another way to get the ball in their hands. Moreover, it recognizes that both of them can do a great deal of damage in space. If DBs are having to defend the screen pass, it also means they can't overcommit to playing deeper. The more things a team can do well on offense, the better chance of putting and keeping the defense off balance.
I've made up my mind. Don't confuse me with the facts.
I'm the most reasonable poster here. If you don't agree, I'll be forced to have a hissy fit.
I'm really looking forward to seeing what this team looks like on the field against an actual opponent, even if it is going to be 'vanilla' and preseason.

I laughed at the weekend sessions. The younger ones like Joe B., Fairburn, Rodak and many more missed tons of action while playing with their phones. They were right in front of me.
Why believe anything they have to say ? Watch the upcoming games and nullify these people as bastions of good information.

One thing I've noticed with the local media in Buffalo is that each reporters has his favorites and their coverage is reflective of that. I'm sure its the same in every other market but I only follow the Bills this closely so I can't say without a shadow of a doubt.
COMING SOON...

To be fair, some of the 'playing with 'phones', is due to the 'instant' nature of crap like twitter, and other forms of social media, where no doubt part of their remit, when covering practices, is to get stuff out into it, as quick as possible. Like yourself, I'd prefer accuracy over rapidity, but I can see how they aren't going to be able to watch everything, and still feed the swamp of social media.
Hopefully, the guys who are doing the evaluations that matter, i.e. the coaches, are doing so only after seeing the whole picture .
Not only Sammy. I would think that Shady would do well since he too can catch coming from the backfield.
I've actually heard to the contrary. The new scheme actually requires more patience in letting holes open, etc. and isn't as conducive to Shady's running style. Just an FYI.
I don't think anyone is overly worried because of his talent but it will be something to watch.
I've heard consistently Zay Jones and White are both studs with Jones being the best rookie out there.
Ragland is obviously still a year away with his injury which is normal after an ACL. When an ACL happens people need to just say "see you in two years."
All our QB's have looked like crap with Taylor being the least ****ty.
On these reports I look for consensus because as pointed out everyone has their bias.
